Definitely juxtaposition because the music is so upbeat. Good art.

I can only imagine that moment...

eightbitsamurai got me into

and there was a moment while driving in my car and singing this at the top of my lungs "what if this person is singing about something sad"

i was sitting on the bus really listening to it and thought that she would turn out to be the girl. But nope, even worse.

Singing about sad things is kind of her trademark. She also sings about her miscarriage in one song but that one doesn't really sound happy.
